"I want to be a marine biologist," Noah told Graeber, who then quickly encouraged the young man to follow his passion.
That kind of talk is music to Graeber's ears.
Graeber visited Piedmont Middle School as part of a three-day traveling marine science class the lab operates each year with funding from the Shell Oil Company, Graeber said. The visit started Tuesday at Piedmont Elementary School and will end today at Piedmont High.
The program is meant to educate students about Alabama's varied marine life and to encourage students like to pursue their interests in science, a field rife with opportunities, Graeber said, as the numbers of students interested have continued to fall in recent decades.
In 2000-01, 13 percent of Alabama college graduates earned degrees in science, technology, engineering or mathematics, or STEM, fields, according to the U.S. Department of Education. In 2008-09 just 11 percent of college graduates earned such degrees.
Alabama's percentage of STEM graduates does rank slightly higher than the national average. In 2000-01 just 12.4 percent of graduates earned STEM degrees. That number fell to 10.7 percent in 2008-09, according to the U.S. Department of Education.
Last year, Graeber and six of his fellow educators at the lab taught about 8,000 Alabama schoolchildren about marine life through the traveling program.
In Piedmont on Wednesday, preserved specimens caught by the lab, mostly in Mobile Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, were placed on tables in Chad Harper's science classroom at the middle school. Students walked among the sponges and hammerhead sharks and squid, daring themselves, and others, to pick them up. A card on each table read "Please touch" to make perfectly clear the experience was meant to be tactile.
"For a lot of people that are landlocked, (these animals) are kind of alien," Graeber said.
"Alabama has a rich, diverse natural world, and most people don't realize just how diverse it is," Graeber said. "Our coastline is so small that if you ask people from other parts of America, a lot of people don't even realize that Alabama is on the coast."
Programs like the Bay Mobile help show that diversity of Alabama life that "stretches all the way from Piedmont down through the rivers, creeks and streams of Alabama and flows out into Mobile Bay,' Graeber said.
But some of the state's most precious nursery grounds for shrimp, crab and oysters have been threatened in recent years, Graeber said. The lab is currently studying the effect on Alabama's coast from the BP oil disaster, when the company's Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded April 20, 2010, killing 11 men and dumping what the U.S. government's special committee on the spill put at 4.9 million barrels of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico.
"The oil spill is still a topic, and it will be a topic for kids two generations out," Graeber said. But ecologically, currently the state looks good, he said. "I haven't seen a tar ball, or any oil, on the beach walks with my students in about 14 months, and we're out there a lot. Daily."
Rachael Smith, a biology teacher at Piedmont High School, said she hopes the program will help her students recognize how diverse Alabama's natural world is, and that "You don't have to travel to the rain forest to see that," Smith said.
During his presentation to Harper's science class, Graeber gave the kids all sorts of facts about sea life, but some didn't need any convincing that marine life is interesting. After Graeber's presentation, an enthusiastic Noah Maddox exclaimed that "The whole time he was talking, I was just like, 'Wow.'"

Local residents make Christmas merrier for those who are struggling
By Susan Frick Carlman email@example.com December 25, 2012 7:50PM
Barb Marshall and her children Robby (left) and Mikey (center) shop for Christmas gifts for the Ramos family at Target on Route 59 in Naperville on Thursday, Dec. 20, 2012. | Mike Mantucca ~ For Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: January 27, 2013 6:26AM
Christmas, we are all well-reminded, is a time of peace and goodwill among humans. Some people take that message especially to heart, forfeiting a portion of the holiday they could spend relaxing and celebrating with their families, and instead using the time to help others who could use a hand. Here are a few local examples.
'Warm feeling'
The Ramos family wasn't having the best year when they met the Marshalls. It was Christmas time in 2009, and Francisco Ramos and a record 4.7 million other Americans had lost their jobs that year.
Ramos, his wife, Josefina, and their three kids were "going through some difficult times," Bob Marshall said. Then working as Naperville's assistant city manager, Marshall heard about the family through the Loaves & Fishes Community Pantry, where the Ramos' had turned for help feeding their family.
The Marshalls figured the family could also use a hand with holiday cheer. So they did some shopping, then paid a call to the family's apartment.
"Mr. Bob gave me a surprise, when he came here to my home," Francisco said this week. "I said, 'Oh my God, you bring us presents!' "
Thus was a tradition begun. On Monday, the Marshalls' fourth annual gift-laden visit was to take place.
Francisco has been in and out of work several times since the Marshalls became part of the household's holiday rituals. He's working now, at Savers in Naperville. But with the arrival of a fourth baby in 2011, Josefina devotes her attention to caring for little Karina, 18 months, along with Fernando, 9; Maria, 6; and Rodrigo, 3, and isn't able to work at a paid position, too.
"They're just having trouble making ends meet," said Marshall, who in May went back to the Naperville Police Department, where he had spent 27 years earlier in his working life, this time settling into the chief's office.
The three Marshall kids — 13-year-old Katie and twins Mikey and Robby, who are almost 11 — have taken on the role of choosing electronic gadgets to give the Ramos kids, and showing them how they're used. The two families have gathered together with the Ramos Christmas tree as a backdrop, for a non-traditional family portrait.
The holiday friendship has brought mutual benefit.
"It's a good message for my children ... that there are people in Naperville who have some economic challenges, and for them to see that they have an opportunity to help other people during the holidays," Marshall said.
Ramos lost his job again last year, when the Oswego warehouse where he was working had to close, and it wasn't until about six months ago that he was able to begin bringing home a modest paycheck again. He's especially grateful for the holiday help.
"I feel really, really happy when they help us, when I have no money to buy presents for my family," Ramos said. "He is so nice."
The chief said he and his wife, Barb, asked the kids last year what they thought about the yearly project.
"One of my boys, Mikey, said he had a warm feeling in his heart when we did it," he said.
Coming to the table
Homeless families were still relatively few in the area when Jeff Reuland heard about the place called Hesed House.
The Aurora agency began its mission in February 1983. When Christmas came around that year, Reuland Food Service came to the table with the gift of festive nourishment, enough to feed the couple dozen or so who had hit hard times and took refuge in the new shelter.
The catering company has been bringing over dinner on Christmas Eve ever since.
"They've got plenty of catering gigs to juggle at that time of year, too," said Ryan Dowd, executive director at Hesed House.
Reuland, who has run the family business for more than four decades, insists it's not a big deal when he and his employees load up the truck with the special dinner and all the trimmings, and take it all over to the shelter to be dished up by local church volunteers — even though they know it will be the year's holiday feast for a guest population that now numbers around 200 people each night. But then, a couple hundred more servings isn't that big a deal on Christmas Eve for the catering business, which has been around since 1955.
"We sometimes have three, four hundred orders going out that day," said Reuland, 64. That might translate to several thousand meals.
The donated fare is just one piece of a day that gets pretty hectic, no matter how it's sliced. All 21 employees are required to work Christmas Eve, but everybody goes home by 3 p.m., and then they have the next two days off.
In the early years, Reuland said, he would send over whatever the kitchen had plenty of — maybe some roast beef or baked chicken — and his kids, Ryan and Brigit, would come along to help. Now, Ryan and Brigit help him run the business, and Ryan brings his own kids to the shelter with him. And with so many more mouths to feed these days, extra food has to be ordered and prepared.
"It's sad," Reuland said, "but it's pretty amazing."
When the catering truck pulls up at the shelter, Reuland said, a swarm of Hesed House guests always comes out to help unload. It gives him a warm feeling to know the meal means so much to so many.
"That's the reason I do it," he said. "Especially the last four, five years."

Tremonti, the band led by Creed and Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti, took some time out of its European tour last week to visit U.S. troops stationed in Heidelberg, Germany. The members of the group signed autographs and took pictures, while Tremonti also answered some questions for American Forces Network. A video of the visit has been posted online.
Tremonti has been on tour in Europe behind All I Was, the guitarist's solo debut which came out in July 2012. He also recently took time out to work on songs for the fourth Alter Bridge album with singer Myles Kennedy and told us how it was going: "We've got about five songs outlined and all of them are kind of real high energy, just real fun rock-slash-metal-slash -- you know, we kind of want to not be predictable. We want to make it a little surprising and we're having fun with it."
The last Alter Bridge album, AB III, came out in 2010.
Tremonti's solo band includes Van Halen bassist Wolfgang Van Halen. The son of Eddie Van Halen made his debut as part of Tremonti's touring lineup in September 2012 after bass player Brian Marshall dropped out.
This marks the first time Wolfgang has played with anyone outside of his father, his uncle Alex and singer David Lee Roth.
With Van Halen not active at the moment, Tremonti has said that he hopes Wolfgang will play bass on his next solo disc and continue touring with him.

Low-Carb Diets Beat Low-Fat for Heart HealthLow-Carb Diets Beat Low-Fat for Heart HealthWhen it comes to weight loss, one size doesn't necessarily fit allThe debate continues: Which is better for lasting weight loss-low-carb or low-fat diets? A study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine found that both diets can help you lose weight and keep it off (when accompanied by a support program), but low-carb diets may actually be better for your heart.
What to give up?
The weight-loss industry is a booming one, with millions of overweight people worldwide hoping to shed some extra pounds. But what's the most effective strategy? Low-carb diets-such as the Zone, Atkins, and South Beach diets-may be more appealing and easier for some people to stick with than those that strictly limit fat intake. But critics of the low-carb craze worry that too much protein could lead to bone loss, and excess fat intake could raise cholesterol levels. On the flip side, some fats, like those found in nuts and salmon, protect heart health, so limiting these foods could also have drawbacks.
The new study compared weight loss, blood fats, bone mineral density, and blood pressure in 307 overweight adults who followed either a low-carb or a low-fat diet for two years:
- People in the low-carb group restricted their carbohydrate intake to no more than 20 grams per day for three months; after that they increased the amount of carbs they ate by 5 grams per day each week until their desired weight was attained.
- The low-fat diet was low in both fat and calories, with only 1,200 to 1,800 calories allowed per day, and no more than 30% of calories from fat.
- All participants received comprehensive behavioral counseling throughout the program to help them reach their target weight by improving self-monitoring skills, resisting cues to eat, and avoiding relapse into unhealthy eating patterns.
- They were also instructed to get some physical activity, mainly in the form of walking. Over time, they gradually increased the amount of exercise to four, 50-minute sessions per week.
Low carbs help heart health
By the end of the study, both groups had lost 7% of their body weight. People in the low-carb group tended to have lower diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number in a blood pressure reading), and bone mineral density decreased by 1.5% or less at the hip and spine in both groups, "suggesting that the hypothetical concerns that weight loss induced by a low-carbohydrate diet causes greater bone loss than that induced by a low-fat diet are unfounded," the study's authors commented. Triglycerides and LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels dropped in both groups to the same degree (which was not much), but HDL ("good") cholesterol levels were significantly higher in the low-carb group.
"When it comes to weight loss, one size doesn't necessarily fit all," says Clara Barnett, an NYC-based physician specializing in weight loss. "Some people respond remarkably well to low-fat diets, while others find them too limiting. It's reassuring to know that both of these diets seem to work equally well, so people can choose what works best for them and their lifestyle. If a person chooses to follow a low-fat diet, though, it might become important to do other things to help bring HDL levels up," she added.

These days, many actors request organic, paraben-free products that help their senesitive skin, especially since they have to be under hot lights for long hours. That's why I love skyn ICELAND products. On the set of Nurse Jackie, I love using the Hydro Cool Firming Eye Gels--they really de-puff and brighten the under-eye area and the actors look well-rested (a much-needed look after 14-hours shoot days!). After lunch, I freshen the actors' faces with the Arctic Face Mist with Multivitamin Complex--smells amazing and I know the multivitamins keep the sin protected and hydrataed throughout the whole day. I trust skyn ICELAND products because I see the results.

It also has a bindiffer named radiff, base converter (rax), a shellcode development helper (rasc), a binary information extractor supporting PE, Mach0, ELF, class, etc. named rabin, and a block-based hash utility called rahash. Radare was rewritten as radare2, and the old version is only maintained for bugfixes.
The Tinyserial library is a space-saving alternative to the Arduino software distribution's libraries for reading and writing characters and strings to the USART0 serial port on the Atmel ATmega168 and ATmega328p MCUs found on Arduino Diecimilla and Duemilanove boards. While the Arduino software distribution's libraries provide interrupt-driven serial I/O with far more features and support more MCUs, the Tinyserial library provides only the most basic polling-based serial I/O. However, the Tinyserial library uses far less Flash and SRAM, thereby giving you room to implement larger and more complicated applications on your boards. The Tinyserial library respects the GNU libc ABI, so you can call into it from C and C++ programs.
ContiPerf is a lightweight testing utility to easily leverage JUnit 4 test cases as performance tests, e.g. for continuous performance testing. It is inspired by JUnit 4's easy test configuration with annotations, and by JUnitPerf's idea of wrapping Unit tests for performance testing, but is more powerful and easier to use. It uses Java annotations for defining test execution characteristics and performance requirements. You can mark a test to run a certain number of times, or to be repeatedly executed for a certain amount of time. Performance requirements can be maximum, average, medium, or any percentile execution time. You can run tests in two different modes, using them as simple unit tests or performance tests. Easy integration with Eclipse and Maven. Export of an execution summary to a CSV file. A small library without external dependencies (only JUnit).
MeteoIO is a C++ library whose main design goals are: providing meteorological data format/protocol independent data access; providing safe and robust I/O; making I/O code as unobtrusive and simple as possible for the user; providing ready to use data to the user (transparent caching, filtering, resampling, and spatial interpolation); enabling unattended use from an I/O point of view; offering high modularity so that individual elements of the library can easily be replaced/expanded/added; and by its modularity, help interdisciplinary development, each module being targeted at a specific developer profile.
PHPContracts is a design by contract framework for the PHP programming language. It can be used in an object-oriented manner or with simple functions. Design by contract is a style of programming where classes and methods have a "contract" specified for them. If the contract is violated, then there is a defect/bug in the program.
APF is a code generator that codes your software as you drag and drop code-abstracts on a canvas. It can be trained by the community to code almost anything. With automatic programming, it will sometimes code 50% to 100% of small or large software projects. APF has successfully shipped some real life software. But APF must produce more diverse software projects. You can help APF grow by picking re-usable code from any existing open source. 'Metacode' that code and submit it to the APF marketplace. APF feeds on re-useable code submitted by the community. This way, APF gets trained to auto code more and more. You can also improve the way APF assembles code, or the way its Canvas lets the user drag and drop code abstracts.

Madii & Dyl Luxe Cleansing Flannel
" We have two of these wonderful cleansing flannels and use one in the bath and another for general wash up. They are very, very soft on the skin (which I love) and clean up really well in the sink or the washing machine. They also come with neat little bags that make wetting and bringing them along easy. I wish I would have known about these when my babies were really little..." --Melanie Mayo

Ghostscript is a processor for PostScript and PDF files. It can rasterize these files to a wide variety of printers, devices for screen preview, and image file formats. Since applications tend to prepare pages for printing in a high-level format such as PostScript, most Unix users with low-level bitmap printers, such as inkjets, use GhostScript as part of the printing process. In addition, Ghostscript is capable of converting PostScript files, functionality comparable to Adobe Acrobat Distiller, but on the command line. In addition, Ghostscript is used for file import and viewing by a great many other applications, including xv, ImageMagick, gimp, and xdvi. Several GUI wrappers for viewing PostScript and PDF files exist, including GSview, ghostview, gv, ggv, and kghostview. This is far from a comprehensive list.

I worked at Radware full-time
Pros – Products are pretty good, good engineering and pretty low failure rate. Pricing is competitive although complex.
Cons – Tend to sell features they haven't really fully vetted to "test" the market... beta testing is almost unheard of.
Support can be spotty.
Marketing is almost non-existent - as is business development and as a result brand recognition is poor ( in the US) so lead generation is appalling.
Advice to Senior Management – Spend more resources on market development instead of just pushing that responsibility to the field.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Mother: Tay McClellan
Brian Dunning (born 1965) is an American writer and producer who focuses on skepticism. He has hosted a weekly podcast, Skeptoid, since 2006 and is an author of 5 books on the subject of scientific skepticism. The Skeptoid podcast has been the recipient of several podcast awards including the Parsec Award and Stitcher award.
Both a computer programmer and screenwriter by trade, he co-founded Buylink, a major Silicon Valley corporation that eventually stopped doing business due to the early 2000s recession. Following the collapse of Buylink, Dunning became a major eBay affiliate marketer, earning over $7 million; he has since been accused of making much of this money via wire fraud through a cookie stuffing scheme. In June 2010, Dunning was indicted on charges of wire fraud by a Federal grand jury. On April 15, 2013, Dunning pleaded guilty to wire fraud in a plea agreement with Federal prosecutors.[1][2]
Despite his legal troubles, he remains a major figure in the geek community and skeptic communities. Skeptoid currently attracts 177,000 listeners weekly. Dunning has also created a spin-off video series and has written several books based on the podcast.[3]
Dunning was born in 1965 in Santa Monica, California, USA. Between 1983 and 1984 he studied computer science at Brigham Young University, film and television at UCLA from 1985 to 1987 and then fiction writing at UC Irvine between 1988 and 1992.[citation needed]
In 1996 he co-founded and was chief technology officer for Buylink Corporation[4] which grew by 1999 into the world's largest business-to-business network with 23,000 members transacting over $5 billion annually.[citation needed] Buylink was funded by Hummer Winblad Venture Partners and Draper Fisher Jurvetson,[5] and Dunning led its team working with Wells Fargo Bank in the development of the first online payment factoring system, code-named PayLater.[6] In 2000 he lectured on Buylink at the UC Berkeley's Entrepreneur Forum called Bricks to Clicks in the New Internet Reality,[7] and in the same year appeared on CNNfn with Rhonda Schaffler's Maverick of the Morning segment to talk about Buylink.[8]
Between 1997 and 2005 he was technical editor for FileMaker Advisor Magazine,[9] and contributing editor of ISO FileMaker Magazine, 1996–2002,[10] winning one of the FileMaker Excellence Awards at the 2001 FileMaker Developers Conference.[11]
Since 2006 Dunning has hosted and produced Skeptoid: Critical Analysis of Pop Phenomena, a weekly audio podcast dedicated "to furthering knowledge by blasting away the widespread pseudosciences that infect popular culture, and replacing them with way cooler reality."[12] He is also the author of the book of the same title and a sequel. He produced Here Be Dragons, a free 40 minute video introduction to critical thinking intended for general audiences,[13] and received an award from the Portland Humanist Film Festival for this in November 2011.[14] He was also winner of the 2010 Parsec Award for "Best Fact Behind the Fiction Podcast".[15] In August 2010 he received an award recognizing his contributions in the skeptical field from the Independent Investigations Group (IIG) during its 10th Anniversary Gala.[16]
Dunning also writes articles for Skepticblog.org,[17] and is an executive producer for the network television pilot The Skeptologists.[18] He is a member of the National Association of Science Writers,[19] and is the "Chancellor" of the non-accredited "Thunderwood College", a parody of unaccredited institutions of higher learning that offer "degrees" in a variety of subjects.[20]
Wire fraud case[edit]
In August 2008, eBay filed suit against Dunning and his brother, accusing them of defrauding eBay and eBay affiliates of $5.2 million in a cookie stuffing scheme for their company, Kessler's Flying Circus. In June 2010, based on the same allegations and following an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a grand jury indicted Dunning on charges of wire fraud.[21] On his Skeptoid blog, Dunning stated "There are several legal reasons that the lawsuit is improper, and we've been fighting it on that basis."[22] On April 15, 2013, in San Jose, CA federal court, as part of a plea agreement, Dunning pleaded guilty to wire fraud.[23] Dunning admitted that he received payments to which he was not entitled, but has "reserved the right to dispute how much of those payments were attributable to the cookie stuffing scheme".[23]
Dunning largely asserts innocence, and noted in a blog post that the case has placed a large psychological toll on him.[3] Despite his troubles, Skeptoid remains popular and he continues to produce new shows weekly as of March 2014.
Skeptoid podcast[edit]
Skeptoid is Dunning's weekly podcast. The show follows an audio essay format, and is dedicated to the critical examination of pseudoscience and the paranormal. In May 2012, Skeptoid became a California state non-profit corporation.[24]
Along with similarly themed Point of Inquiry, Skepticality: The Official Podcast of Skeptic Magazine, and The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe, it is a Top-50 program on the iTunes (US) Science & Medicine podcast charts.[25] In December 2011, Skeptoid claimed to have a weekly average of 174,000 downloads.[26]
Each roughly ten-minute Skeptoid episode focuses on a single pop culture phenomenon that is pseudoscientific in nature. Episodes usually fall into one of four categories:
- Quackery medical modalities: such as homeopathy, reflexology, detoxification, or chiropractic
- Popular cultural misconceptions: such as organic foods, SUVs, and global warming
- Urban legends: such as crop circles, the Amityville Horror, the Phoenix Lights, or the Philadelphia Experiment
- Religion and mythology: such as creation legends, New Age religions, and concepts of sin
In May 2007, Skeptoid was announced as a qualifying media outlet for the James Randi Educational Foundation's One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge.[27] Applicants to the challenge must have a presence in popular broadcast media in order to qualify.[28] By passing a simple test of their paranormal ability and having it reported on the Skeptoid podcast, applicants can satisfy that primary requirement and then proceed to apply for the Challenge.
Despite his shift away from the technology industry, he continues to do computer programming, and does web development for his Skeptoid website.[29]
Episode 300[edit]
In celebration of the 300th episode of the podcast, Dunning, composer Lee Sanders, singer Rachel Bloom, artist Jesse Horn, director Ryan Johnson and sound mixer Bill Simpkins produced the animated musical short, The Secret of the Gypsy Queen. It is the story of a young girl who challenged the Queen and her rats who sold everyone in the village a uber-scarf which when worn across the eyes blinds the wearer to all unpleasantness. The villagers, once the uber-scarf was removed discovered they had been scammed, and while blind the rats had emptied the homes of food and valuables. The premier was released at the University of California, Irvine March 3, 2012. Entertainment that evening featured comedians Penny Chan and Matt Kirshen. Mentalism by Mark Edward, emceed by Emery Emery.[30]
Skeptoid was a 2009 Podcast Awards finalist in the Education category.[31]
In 2010, Skeptoid won the Parsec Award for "Best Fact Behind the Fiction" podcast.[32]
Skeptoid has been praised for "Outstanding Contribution to Science and Skepticism" by the Independent Investigations Group (IIG)[33]
In 2012, "Skeptoid" was the winner of the Stitcher Award in the Best Science Podcast category.[34]

- May 2011, Dunning spoke at Authors@Google with a presentation of Sounds From Beyond.[44] When asked if he sees any positive science trends in the media he answered, "No...I think we have a negative trend, in the realm of rationality and reason it is going to continue to slide. And the reason I think we are going to continue to lose ground as far as capturing the hearts and minds of the general public, is because of the Internet and television, its become so easy to reach so many people with a sensational message.

The CAGS in School Psychology Program admits students for the fall semester only. The Priority Application deadline for submitting an application is March 1. The School Psychology Program welcomes application from students who share our interests in commitment to the delivery of psychological services in a diverse society. Diversity among students in the program is expected, however it is anticipated all applicants will possess a Bachelor's degree, with appropriate course work or complete such coursework during the beginning phases of training.
Following formal application and meeting criteria for admittance to the Graduate School at Worcester State University, the School Psychology Program utilizes multiple criteria for admission:
1. An overall undergraduate grade average of a B2. An undergraduate major or concentration in Psychology*3. Passing score on the MTEL Communication and Literacy Skills Test is strongly recommended.
**Students may be admitted to the program from a variety of academic backgrounds. However, it is expected that an appropriate number of courses in psychology may be required in the initial phases of training. The faculty reserves the right to determine those courses to be taken. This preparatory coursework will not directly apply to the Course requirements for the C.A.G.S. in School Psychology.
We offer you a cadre of professionals, faculty, adjunct faculty and clinical supervisors who view ourselves as partners and mentors with our students, as you undertake this arduous, yet satisfying journey.
